While Samoa Joe is an intimidating star, Bobby Lashley has one of the best physiques in WWE today. Plus, the current United States Champion's booking has been quite remarkable for the past few months.

Lashley has gradually turned into an unstoppable beast since he aligned with MVP and The Hurt Business. Few WWE Superstars could defeat Lashley at the moment, but Samoa Joe could convincingly challenge his dominance.

Joe and Lashley have a detailed history that dates back to their time in TNA Wrestling. But they haven't wrestled in a singles match against each other in WWE. Given how poorly Lashley was booked in WWE at one point in time, it made sense why the higher-ups may have avoided a feud between the two stars.

But things have changed a lot since Lashley's controversial wedding angle with Lana and Rusev. He is an impressive champion, so a rivalry with Samoa Joe could help both competitors.

Samoa Joe could act as the perfect roadblock for Lashley. As a result, other members of The Hurt Business would also get the chance to fight "The Samoan Suplex Machine." In theory, everyone involved in this potential storyline only stands to benefit.
